San Antonio’s own Versailles-style palace hit the real estate market for the first time this month. Its asking price: $4.7 million.
The grand estate in Terrell Hills spans 8,535 square feet and includes five bedrooms and a live-in suite, along with seven full baths and two half baths. Dubbed “The Versailles,” the residence features replicas of architectural elements from King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette’s French palace.
When guests arrive at the Terrell Road property, they pass through one of two swirling iron gates, modeled after 18th-century designs, and travel along a cobblestone driveway reminiscent of historic French walkways.
The mansion features an ornate spiral staircase, a chandelier-adorned living room and geometric wooden floors modeled after a pattern commissioned by King Louis in 1684. Also featured is a private library, a formal living room and three gas fireplaces with limestone mantels built in 18th-century French style.
